ford ranger with 1979 302 timing issue?


You brought it up to TDC but did you do the compression finger-in-the-hole first? It can be 180 degrees off... that timing mark goes by TWICE for every stroke. If that is verified to be correct, very likely it is off one tooth. Pull it up, move it over a tooth and punch it back in the hole and try it...
